Mr. LeCates did make me spend a lot more time than necessary because he was conversational, but he never charged me for that. He gave me straight talk when I wanted to fantasize about the outcome I wanted. He made the reality of what would happen and what I needed to do very clear. And he was exactly correct in his statements. Exactly what he said would happen, did happen. I didn't always like what he said, but he wasn't going to mislead me into thinking I would have some outcome that would never happen. His advice was priceless. I won my case because of his advice. What more can I say? I WON A SUPERIOR COURT VICTORY BECAUSE OF EDWARD LECATES LEGAL GUIDANCE; PERIOD

One of the better ways to thank you and show my appreciation for your good work was to pass on a good referral. Thank you!

I don't know what kind of lawyer this man is but he goes to his clients houses and instead of doing work he watches television and falls asleep until 10 pm, he signed a client out of a nursing home AGAINST MEDICAL ADVISE,this women is 90 yrs old can't walk ,wears diapers and can brely lift her arms to eat,after signing her out against medical advice he told social services that he WILL NOT be responsible for her he was just signing her out because when wanted to go home.he didn't bother to see what her condition is or why she needs to have 24 hour care,he signed her out because she put him as power of attorney and asked him to,he does not do what's in her best interest .there's no other way to put this,he is just plain stupid and has no knowledge of his clients or their needs.I would not reccomend this man to anyone
